=A moment of silence for the Tsunami victims=
Yep, the disaster that struck Asia...in December! Very very unfortunate...December is like the 'peace' period in the world...cause it has Christmas in it...
I hope my school has a donation drive...I'm not that kind of 'leadership' person, more of a nice follower...haha. Unless the details are there I'll offer to help out in any way..
Anyway, have you all done your prep-work for Secondary 3?! I have! Just that Add-Maths and Physics...make me go blur. I'm not much of a maths person, takes time for me to digest the infomation and apply it.
Yes! And today I got Jing Yi's email address! I'm so happy! La la la la~
I ask my mom today whether she donated to aid the tsunami victims. She said POSB is collecting funds too...well bottom line is that she's too busy...she came back home today at 12.00!!! OMG! Yes she's very very busy, end of year work is always a lot!
I have yet to practice sleeping early and waking early. My biological clock is FROZEN. Stuck at waaaayy up there in Europe!
Oh yes...I forgot..New Year's wishlist...
1. MOE abolish Chinese and English FORMAL Letter-Writing. It suxs and not used today in the IT world. (Well maybe in Companies...but it sucks!)
2. Less stress...haha as if!
3. Good Teachers. Just good, in teaching. Temper? Thats another thing.
4. Good Time-Management (I want to at least go online on MSN every evening...*sob*)
5. Less Withdrawal Symptoms from isolating my dear computer.
6. Good Results. (You know..Yi Fan Feng Shun) [Edit*=Haha...thanks Maddy]
7. Suscribe to Business Week? (Haha...more options for stress relief. Who says a 14 yr old can't read it?)
8. Make good friends male or female ^.^v
9. Peace to the World!!! (Hahahahaha, lesser conflicts between countries!)

Krakow - The Icon for Krakow, Dragon. Isn't it cute? Anyway, the story behind it is pretty cute too! Posted by Hello
Last time, this dragon lived in the cave under the castle. It ate princessess and one of the kings decided to do something about it. "The man who can kill the dragon will get to marry my daughter," the King announced. One shoemaker decided to do it. He stuffed sulphur in a dead sheep and placed it outside the Dragon's cave. The Dragon ate it and felt something very very hot in his stomach after a while and he died shortly, got poisoned?
Anyway, the shoemaker and the princess lived happily ever after...hehehe

Anyway, back to world stuff...TSUNAMI strikes! Ouch!
Many people got affected badly! My condolences for those who have suffered under such adverse conditions.
I hope theres enough medical supplies! And prevention of water-borne diseases.
Yesterday (Tues), I saw an documentary on Tsunami's and it was pretty interesting! Under water earthquakes and something about volcanoes change the water and becomes one dented hole..(or so it seems haha)
I also saw a very special show on traveling in Bacelona and other parts of Spain. The way back-pack travellers travel there...totally ALIEN to me...The host practically had to sleep on grass! Luckily theres nice Australian travellers having lunch there and she could sleep in their Combi-Van...lucky!!!
Ahh...its 1.22 A.M...gotta catch some sleep!
